conf: Treat --dns addresses as guest visible addresses

Although it's not 100% explicit in the man page, addresses given to
the --dns option are intended to be addresses as seen by the guest.
This differs from addresses taken from the host's /etc/resolv.conf,
which must be translated to guest accessible versions in some cases.

Our implementation is currently inconsistent on this: when using
--dns-forward, you must usually also give --dns with the matching address,
which is meaningful only in the guest's address view.  However if you give
--dns with a loopback addres, it will be translated like a host view
address.

Move the remapping logic for DNS addresses out of add_dns4() and add_dns6()
into add_dns_resolv() so that it is only applied for host nameserver
addresses, not for nameservers given explicitly with --dns.
